1-MAR-2008: Palestinian Hamas militants take position next to a
burning barricade during an Israeli army operation east of Jebaliya,
in the northern Gaza Strip, Saturday, March 1, 2008. Twenty-one
Palestinians, including at least eight civilians, were killed late
Friday and early Saturday in escalating Israeli-Palestinian fighting
that renewed threats of an Israeli invasion of Gaza and clouded peace
efforts. A baby and two teenagers were among the dead, and dozens of
people were wounded, Palestinian medical sources said.(AP
